Split Command AND an Array
| |
string[] fnames =newstring[8 ] { @"\\Share\File.rpt", @"\\Share\File.rpt", @"\\Share\File.rpt", @"\\Share\File.rpt", @"\\Share\File.rpt", @"\\\Share\File.rpt", @"\\Share\File.rpt", @"\\Share\File.rpt" };
int fcnt = 0;
char delim = ' ';
string rprtRead;
string[] rprtARR =null; while (fcnt < 8)
{
using (FileStream fs =new FileStream(fnames[fcnt].ToString(), FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read))
{
using (StreamReader sr =new StreamReader(fs, Encoding.GetEncoding(437)))
{
rprtRead = sr.ReadToEnd();
rprtARR = rprtRead.Split(delim);
}
}
fcnt++;
}

On the line:
| |
rprtARR = rprtRead.Split(delim)
|
Everytime the loop repeats itself it re-wrties the full array. I need all the file contents stored in this one array. Is there anyways to do this? I am unable to do a
rprtARR[rprtArr.length] = rprtRead.Split(delim);
due to the fact that the compiler catches it as tieing a string[] to a string. Anyone have a way around this? Thanks in advance!

why don't you store it in an ArrayList?
ArrayList theList = new ArrayList();
so... in the using streamReader statement:
rprtRead = sr.ReadToEnd();
string[] rprtArr = rprtRead.Split(delim);
theArrayList.Add(rprtArr);
or if you need to use the string[] array try this (untested)
..
rprtArr[fcnt] = rprtRead.Split(delim);
but make sure you create the rprtArr[] array to the same length of fcnt
does this help/work for you?
I can go ahead and implement the ArrayList. From there I just need to be able to go back through and read through every entry in the ArrayList which is now 0-7. Is there a way to re-bind it back to an Array? Or are you familair with an easy way to go through all the entries? Thanks for your help.
BTW- The second method does not work because when you're sending the string to the array it cannot have any designation behind it, it can only be rprtARR = etc. or else it gives you an error stating that a string[] cannot be assigned a value from a string.

Actually, best case scenario would be I could take all the items in that Array list and bind them into a single array. So far everything I have tried has failed miserably though so any advice you could give would be greatly appreciated.

you are using many arrays which some of them pretty much hold the same thing (from what I understand)
you are probably safer/easier/quicker to just use an arraylist to store the string[] array's
or you could I guess create a string List<T> and add the items in there. Otherwise if you need to store them in the string[] array from the ArrayList:
| |
..
string[] theStringArrays = new string[theArrayList.Count];
for (int counter = 0; counter <= theArrayList.Count; counter++)
{
theStringArrays[counter] = theArrayList[counter].ToString();
}
|
does this help?
The code itself you gave me works but I don't think it's coded out exactly correct due to the way the arraylist is. My arraylist has a count of 8 (0-7).
arrlist[0] has 444285 dimensions
arrlist[1] has 105113 dimensions
arrlist[2] has 37655 dimensions
arrlist[3] has 131660 dimensions
arrlist[4] has 613290 dimensions
arrlist[5] has 582707 dimensions
arrlist
has 468240 dimensions
arrlist[7] has 605740 dimensions
What my code actually does is go through each of these individual items looking for certain strings. Here is the code:
| |
while (i != rprtARR2.Length)
{
entry = rprtARR2 .ToString();
if (entry == "PANEL" || entry == "SWBD")
{
i++;
entry = rprtARR2.ToString();
if (entry == "SCHEDULE:")
{
i++;
entry = rprtARR2.ToString();
if (entry == panel)
{
i++;
while (entry != "\r\n\f\r\n")
{
result = result + " " + rprtARR.ToString();
i++;
entry = rprtARR.ToString();
}
}
}
}
i++;
}
l = 0;
if (result == null)
{
}
else
{
while (l < result.Length)
{
reportTextBox.Text = result;
l++;
}
}

Of course I am willing to modify this code as needed I just don't know how to get it to sort through that arraylist. As you can see from the code I was originally checking the data from a single string[] array.
